What Trump's Threat To End A U.S.-Russia Nuclear Arms Treaty Means For Putin

It's not a race if only one side is racing.

and here we go again. except, this time, we won't be able to spend them into oblivion

I am not worried. We need to put a brigade size element of tanks and equipment back in Germany. We need to put at least a couple squadrons of warthogs in Scotland to protect the baltics and a squadron in Poland to protect Poland and NATO against Russian aggression. Russia has about 4 top-notch divisions On the Border and, depending who you listen to, they can overrun the baltics in 3 days. There is more things to worry about than global warming. If Putin's been testing intermediate-range missiles since 2008, he's already in the arms race. Maybe this means that Angela Merkel can stop goofing off and get her operational rate of her luftwaffe back up to 80% from 10%. Europe needs to put his 2% toward GDP and not toward climate change. I know they've been overwhelmed with a million refugees from the Middle East but they need to stop wasting money on carbon capture and try to focus on Mutual defense of NATO. This doesn't mean bringing nuclear missiles back into England. We have subs for that task.
